The wretched state of the wandering night spirit was like a resounding slap across his face, burning with pain.
The flames of anger burned wildly in his chest, threatening to consume his reason.
"very good!"
Wang Lei squeezed out two words through his teeth, his voice distorted by extreme anger, carrying a metallic, hoarse quality.
"very good!"
He raised his head, his bloodshot eyes fixed on Lin Che's face. The resentment and killing intent in his eyes could no longer be concealed, like a wild beast driven to the brink of destruction, ready to tear its prey to pieces and devour it alive.
"New student, you've successfully angered me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand sharply, and a beam of red light shot out decisively, recalling the Dusknoir, which was already severely injured, had its core skill [Cursed Body] sealed, and was almost completely rendered useless in battle, back into its Poké Ball.
This action was performed without the slightest hesitation or pity.
It was as if what was taken back was not a partner who fought alongside them, but a broken and shameful tool.
Immediately, he took out a unique, heavy commemorative ball from the most central part of his waist. It was completely black and had gold patterns engraved on its surface.
This is his trump card, his true pride, and his strongest ace!
"Let me show you what true, unbeatable strength is... that your laughable little tricks can't defeat!"
Wang Lei's expression turned ferocious and fanatical. He poured all his anger and humiliation into this final throw!
"Come forth, my king of the skies—Steel Crow!"
With an almost roaring howl, he hurled the heavy memorial ball into the air!
A blinding red light exploded in mid-air!
"唳——!!!"
A loud, high-pitched eagle cry, full of metallic texture and endless majesty, suddenly resounded throughout the entire battle arena!
The sound seemed to have a tangible impact, causing a sharp pain in the eardrums of everyone present and a violent shock to their minds!
The light dissipated.
A terrifying giant bird, with an enormous size and a wingspan of several meters, hovered in mid-air above the arena!
Its body seemed to be forged from the hardest obsidian and steel, with each feather shimmering with a cold metallic luster and edges as sharp as blades.
A pair of scarlet eyes, devoid of any emotion, were like two blood-red stars hanging high in the night sky, coldly overlooking everything on the ground.
Just hovering there, an aura of a king ruling the world, mixed with the terrifying pressure of an elite expert, descended from the sky like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami crashing down!
The air in the entire venue seemed to become thick and heavy in an instant!
In the audience, many of the weaker freshmen turned pale instantly, feeling as if a huge rock was pressing on their chests, and even breathing became incredibly difficult.
It's a Steel-Armored Raven!
Almost at the same moment it appeared, the [Eye of Truth] panel, which only he could see, popped up in front of Lin Che's eyes.
The data was clearly displayed on the pale blue screen.
[Elf: Steel Crow]
[Level: LV.42 (Elite)]
【Characteristic: Mirror Armor (When affected by an opponent's move that reduces stats, it reflects the effect back to the opponent)】
[Potential Assessment: Dojo Level]
Lin Che's pupils contracted slightly.
Trouble.
This [Mirror Armor] ability is a nightmare for all tactical trainers. It means that any attempt to gain an advantage by weakening the opponent's abilities will be completely ineffective, and may even backfire!
Many of Alola Ninetales' control moves, such as Icy Wind and Spectral Light, are rendered useless against it.
What's even more deadly is its perfect combination of flight and steel attributes.
This means that Alolan Ninetales' most prized and powerful Ice-type move will have its damage significantly reduced when facing it!
It cannot be weakened; its attributes are countered.
This powerful enemy, floating in the air like an iron fortress, is almost flawless!
On the field, the Alola Ninetales, which had always appeared elegant and composed, tensed up for the first time after feeling the terrifying pressure descending from the sky and the gaze of those cold and ruthless red eyes, and entered the highest level of alert.
It felt immense, unprecedented pressure.
"Haha...hahahaha!"
Seeing the fleeting seriousness on Lin Che's face and the Alola Ninetales' reaction, a confident, cruel, and even somewhat morbidly gleeful smile reappeared on Wang Lei's face.
He could almost see Lin Che kneeling and begging for mercy, and he could see the tragic scene of the beautiful nine-tailed fox being torn to pieces by his own Steel Crow.
"How are you doing, new students!"
He spread his arms wide, arrogantly enjoying the gazes from the entire audience, a mixture of awe and fear.
"Faced with absolute strength and perfect attribute advantages, your laughable little tricks are utterly worthless! You're not even worthy of tickling me!"
"Now, I will make you pay the most painful price for your arrogance and your ignorance!"
Wang Lei suddenly waved his hand, declaring victory!
"Steel Armored Raven, Iron Hoof Ray!"
Chapter 50 Crushing Victory! This is the true value of champion-level potential! Rising to fame comes from Student Council President Sun Zhe.
On the battlefield, the air currents emitted a sharp hissing sound due to the convergence of energy.
The elite-level Steel Armored Raven hovered in mid-air, each steel feather gleaming with a cold and dangerous metallic luster. The shadow cast by its massive body almost covered the half of the field where Lin Che was located.
The oppressive aura of the sky's overlord transformed into tangible waves of air, spreading in all directions.
"It's over, new life."
Wang Lei's voice came from the other side, carrying a condescending condescension and undisguised arrogance.
He crossed his arms, the smile on his lips radiating absolute confidence in victory.
In his view, the outcome of this duel was never in doubt from the start, and now he will use the most magnificent and domineering strike to put an end to this boring "teaching" session.
Faced with this overwhelming momentum and Wang Lei's almost triumphant shouts, Lin Che's face remained calm and composed.
He didn't even bother to recall the Alola Nine-Tails.
He stood there quietly, as if the Armored Raven that was gathering terrifying energy in front of him was nothing more than a harmless Popo.
"Do you want to crush me with your strength?"
Lin Che raised his eyes, his gaze piercing through the turbulent air currents, and stared directly at the majestic Steel Armored Raven in mid-air.
He shook his head gently, letting out a barely audible sigh.
"Unfortunately, you chose the wrong opponent."
The words weren't loud, but they reached Wang Lei's ears clearly, like a tiny needle puncturing his complacent bubble.
"You keep talking even when you are about to die!"
Wang Lei's face instantly darkened, completely enraged by the contempt shown by a freshman.
He suddenly waved his hand, issuing the order to end the game!
"Corviknight Raven! Let this arrogant brat see what true power is! Iron Hoof Ray!"
The moment the command was given, the steel-type energy within Corviknight's body converged at an unprecedented speed, condensing into a dazzling gray dot of light in front of its beak.
The point of light expanded rapidly, and the density of its energy caused a slight distortion in the surrounding space.
The next moment, a massive gray torrent, powerful enough to pierce through steel and vaporize rock, tore through the air and shot out with a devastating shriek!
In that split second, Lin Che's clear and steady command was issued simultaneously, as if it were on a beat precise to the millisecond!
"Nine-Tails, don't dodge!"
"Condense the [Aurora Curtain] right in front of me!"
what? !
Should I use defensive skills to tank the damage?
Is he crazy?!
This command not only stunned Wang Lei, the opponent, but also caused the audience members who were marveling at the momentum of Steel Armor to exclaim in disbelief.
That's Iron Hoof Beam! A powerful move for Steel-type Pokémon! Not to mention an Alolan Ninetales that looks like it's geared towards Special Attack and Speed, even a Shieldon that specializes in Defense wouldn't dare say it could take it head-on!
A strong sense of disdain and cruelty flashed in Wang Lei's eyes.
Has this freshman become so stupid that he has forgotten even the most basic attribute counters and attack/defense judgments?
However, the smile on his face froze completely the next second.
The Alola Ninetales gracefully raised its front paws, its nine icy tails swaying gently.
Before it, a pale blue light screen, composed of extreme ice and snow energy and mysterious fairy-type power, radiating a seven-colored halo, quietly appeared.
The light screen looked so thin and fragile, as if a gentle breeze could blow it away.
"boom--!!!"
The devastating torrent of steel slammed into the pale blue light screen that looked as thin as a cicada's wing without any suspense!
The deafening roar shook the entire stadium floor!
The blinding light caused many viewers to instinctively close their eyes.
The anticipated scene of the light curtain shattering and the Nine-Tailed Fox being swallowed by the energy torrent did not occur.
The terrifying beam of light, the immense energy that could easily pierce a tank, only caused an extremely violent ripple on that seven-colored light screen!
Gray and rainbow lights intertwined, collided, and annihilated wildly!
The violent energy contained in the steel torrent was continuously guided and dispersed by that seemingly fragile light curtain in an extremely flexible and mysterious way, and was eventually completely dissolved into nothingness!
When the light faded, Alola Ninetales remained standing gracefully in place, completely unharmed.
